Phil The Thrill Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 (edited) Rapoport is reporting that Marrone is in no danger of being fired. I think this is atrocious and if I were a Jags fan, I’d be fuming. I think Doug really botched this season. How can he not be on the hot seat when a Super Bowl contender goes 3-8?

HomeskillitMoorman Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Unless there's a guy on the staff that the owner thinks is a competent interim coach, especially with 5 games still left, they probably wouldn't be all that honest about his status. I really don't think this means anything in terms of whether he'll get canned or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snafu Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 I honestly see him coaching the Jets next season. Bowles is toast, and Marrone will probably try a second time to wrangle his way to NY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blacklabel Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 7 minutes ago, Coach Tuesday said: He's on his third OC and offense is supposedly his speciality area... I'm not convinced. Offensive line is supposedly his specialty, but their starting left tackle (Cam Robinson) went on IR early this season. And yesterday, the LG, (Andrew Norwell) went down with an injury. The left side of their line is headed up by Ereck "Turnstile" Flowers at LT and undrafted kid at LG. Fournette has been in and out of the lineup and they lean so heavily on him that they're basically a different team when he's not playing.Also, the whole team seems undisciplined to me, which is weird for a Marrone-coached team. He's a stickler for rules and all that crap. I remember him benching Dareus a couple times because the dude could never be on time. But the way he ran the locker room here in Buffalo left a lot of veteran guys with a poor perception of him. He tried running things as if it were a college program and that stuff isn't gonna fly. So, I dunno if he backed off on being a stickler and is allowing the team to be themselves but I feel like that team could be down 42-0 and the defense would still be talking trash and instigating. And then there's Bortles. Didn't Marrone hire Hackett to be his OC as soon as he was named head coach? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the Bills, before playing 2 3 win teams, were having an historically bad season. SM is safe for a 3rd year as should DM, as annoying as he is. He definitely is one a short leash though next year.

Doc Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Of course he won't. He'll quit. And I kinda figured when I read that thread about him joking and showing charisma despite the losing. Figured he'd been told he's staying. He'll be fired sometime during next season though. That team is on a downward spiral. The defense is getting old, offense lost a lot of talent, and they have no QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. WEO Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Last year they rode a top running game (bad QB) and great D to the AFCC game. This year they have no running game (bad QB) and decent D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LABILLBACKER Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Doug Marrone never had any more ability than guys like Mularkey, Williams or Jauron. He built a top 5 defense only to neglect the most important facet of the NFL. An offense. Bortles is the worst qb in the league (besides Peterman) and St. Doug will eventually get axed over his stubborn arrogance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBill Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Marrone must have Coughlin’s ear on all of the injuries. The fact that they list in the manner they did yesterday should have been the end of Marrone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
